Burke Centre VRE Garage Construction Begins Phase II

Free Additional Parking Spaces and Shuttle to VRE Station at Burke
Centre Library Site and St. Mary’s Church

Phase II of construction for a new 1,290-space garage at the Burke
Centre Virginia Railway Express (VRE) station begins Monday, Feb. 5, and
is expected to last approximately 14 months. During that time, 235
parking spaces will be temporarily displaced and Fairfax County and VRE
are providing other alternatives.

Free satellite parking with 118 spaces is available at the site of the
future Burke Centre Library on Freds Oak Road, north of the Fairfax
County Parkway. Free shuttle bus service is provided directly between the
Burke Centre Library site and Burke Centre VRE station.

On weekday mornings, the shuttle bus departs the library site at 5:49,
6:19, 6:46, 7:24 and 7:54 a.m., arriving at the station 10 minutes before
each VRE train leaves. On weekday afternoons, the shuttle leaves the
station five minutes after every VRE train arrives, taking commuters back
to the Burke Centre Library parking site.

There also are 100 additional parking spaces for VRE commuters at Saint
Mary’s Church, located at Zion Drive and Sideburn Road. On weekday
mornings, the shuttle bus departs the church at 5:41, 6:14, 6:42, 7:16
and 7:46 a.m., arriving at the station 10 minutes before each VRE train
leaves. On weekday afternoons, the shuttle leaves the station five
minutes after every VRE train arrives, taking commuters back to the
church.

EZ Bus will continue to operate its north and south routes to the Burke
Centre station. These buses are free and subscriptions are no longer
necessary. In the mornings, EZ Buses arrive at the station five to 10
minutes before VRE trains 324, 326, 328, 330 and 332 depart. In the
afternoon, EZ Buses leave the station five minutes after VRE trains 325,
327, 329, 331, 333, 335 and 337 arrive.
